Five strangers, one of them the devil on a soul collecting task, are stuck together on a broken-down Philadelphia elevator waiting to be rescued.
Devil is a low budget movie done right. The director and acting are competent, but the real star of the show is the screenplay. The run-time has been criticized as too short, but a longer movie would have led to over-telling of the story, unnecessarily dragging out the plot.
